The Issues

TLAG’s concerns with the high density development Boulder is trying to force into Twin Lakes Road against the will of the people include:

• Area Hydrology• Conflicts with BVCP• Up Zoning / Annexation of open spaces to benefit developers• Open Space Conversion• Community Density• Lack of Local Services and Amenities• The Environment and Wildlife• Traffic, Parking & Transportation

Note: TLAG is not opposed to affordable housing! City and County officials, together with self-interested "affordable housing advocates," have attempted to unfairly paint TLAG's opposition to high-density development in a rural community's open space, as an opposition to affordable housing. Nothing could be further from the truth. Help us draw the distinction and expose the underhanded efforts to shame people into allowing a development that is completely incompatible with the Twin Lakes community and that jeopardizes the future of all Open Space.
